There is basically no way for the slave to fail, except to leak fluid.  If
no leak, it's not the slave cylinder.  And even if it does start leaking,
the leak will likely be slow enough that low fluid will be the first thing
you notice (not having to pump the pedal).

Check out the MC first, definitely.  But your description sounds
suspiciously like the dread broken taper pin.
